Now I have the best of svn-buildpackage and pdebuild reunited ! Thanks.
BTW, I am still doing something wrong. I have setup an unstable
pbuilder but still I get:
$ svn-pdebuild is an alias for svn-buildpackage --svn-dont-purge
--svn-lintian --svn-override=origDir=. --svn-ignore
--svn-builder="pdebuild --buildresult `pwd`/../build-area"
...
lintian /home/mathieu/Projects/debian-med/trunk/packages/gdcm/build-area/gdcm_2.0.14-1_amd64.changes
W: gdcm source: newer-standards-version 3.8.3 (current is 3.8.2)
N: 1 tag overridden (1 warning)
why is my lintian not up to date (I did a sudo pbuilder --update earlier)
Thanks,
